These remarks made Pei Xihe think of Shang Xuanyu, the lover of the Hehuan sect back then.

This woman was following the path of "confirming the Sacred Heart through charm", and in the original Holy Demon Realm, he had helped her obtain the inheritance of the True Demon Girl.

Pei Xihe's eyes narrowed slightly, his golden pupils flashed with contemplation, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up. How could it be such a coincidence?

She walked forward quickly and reached Jiang Mingzhu's side. Just as she was about to open her mouth to hear the news, she was stuffed with a small white jade-like pastry.

"Taste it."

The rich and sweet taste of red beans swirled on the tip of the tongue, the pastry was broken, the lower layer was soft and waxy, and the rich layers burst out together, making Pei Xihe couldn't help chewing and nodded.

"It tastes really good."

Jiang Mingzhu said with a smile: "Although it is not as helpful as spiritual food for practicing magic, it can be regarded as the taste of food itself."

A golden-haired fox jumped left and right, standing on its hind legs, holding long skewers on each paw of its upper limbs, skewering the rich and fragrant barbecue, with a furry face and eyes smiling like crescent moons.

"Try this, this barbecue restaurant is guaranteed to be delicious."

Pei Xihe's face softened and his expression gradually softened, and his previous thoughts were interrupted. She took the meat skewer held by the fox's paw and opened her mouth to eat the meat. Although it looked unsightly, it was refreshing and enjoyable.

The meat is browned on the outside and tender on the inside, evenly coated with oil, and the spicy spices give off a new flavor with the heat from the oven, making Pei Xihe's eyes slightly curved.

She said with a smile: "When it comes to food, it's you."

Pei Xihe did not forget about the business, so he sent a message to Jiang Mingzhu: "Mingzhu, when you ascended, did you hear about the traces of the lover in the Hehuan sect in Tianxu Divine State?"

Hearing this question, although Jiang Mingzhu was a little confused, she thought about it carefully.

She was from the Jiang family in Kunlun, so she had to pay more attention to the changes in power in China. After recalling it, she sent a message and replied.

"Before that disaster, it seemed that the lover had disappeared. It was said that he went to some secret place, which made the Hehuan Qing family furious. Even when I ascended, I never heard about this girl."

When Pei Xihe heard this, he immediately made some assumptions in his mind, nodded and said, "I wonder if you have seen an interesting rumor in the Tianjian about a lustful witch."

"I think it's the lover, Shang Xuanyu."

Jiang Mingzhu's eyes looked suspicious, but she smiled and said, "Could it be that you went to a secret place with her?"

Pei Xihe nodded.

Jiang Mingzhu didn't take it to heart and went to the street vendor's stall to buy exquisite fruits, and the fox on the side delivered the spirit stone.

She ate a piece of green dumpling and replied slowly: "Just adapt to circumstances. If we really meet, are you still afraid of her?"

Pei Xihe naturally shook his head and said with a low smile: "I just feel that there is some fate, which is interesting."

After this matter was over, she was really not at ease. When she saw the delicious food, she took out two low-grade spiritual stones and exchanged them.

The old woman had a kind face and quick hands and feet. She used the steaming soft dough to wrap up the braised pork with soy sauce, add green and red melon shreds, and handed it to Pei Xihe.

After taking a bite, the warm feeling made her have some strange thoughts in her heart, like opening the window in a dark room and letting in bright light.

Perhaps, in the future, we can blend into the world of mortals to hone our state of mind?

The fairy ate and finished it in one bite.

Now Pei Xihe has found some fun in eating and drinking like Helian Jiucheng.

"Look at that!"

The fox suddenly ran up to her shoulder, his voice full of curiosity.

"Why are there so many people gathered together?"

Pei Xihe and Jiang Mingzhu looked in the direction of the fox's gaze and saw many people gathering in one place, almost blocking the street, but no officials came to persuade them to clear the way.

Whether they were mortals or monks, their eyes showed pious excitement.

Jiang Mingzhu saw that all the vendors at the stall wanted to ignore the business and go forward, so she put down her hand that was about to take the pastry, hugged it to her chest, looked at the place in front of her, and said with a smile.

"Pei Xihe, you, you, it seems that as long as I follow you, I will always be in trouble."

The woman in golden clothes who was named narrowed her eyes and replied with a half-smile, "Then you don't want to go see what the excitement is?"

When the green skirt was raised, Jiang Mingzhu had already taken steps without looking back. Only her voice could be heard in the air.

"Of course I want to see the excitement."

Pei Xihe stepped forward to follow, while the golden-haired fox hurriedly took out the spiritual stones from the storage ring, counted them, and paid for what he had eaten before, and then moved towards the two women on all fours.

Since he is an immortal, he always has a trick or two.

In an understatement, he passed through the crowd and arrived at the inner circle. The monk next to him showed a slight dissatisfaction on his face. How could he still occupy the best position? However, he noticed that the two women and one fox were surrounded by the spirit of fairy spirits, and they quickly calmed down their expressions.

Looking inside, a large square table is placed in the middle, with a white sail tree on the right, and two large black ink characters "Fortune Telling" on it fluttering in the wind, which makes people feel unreasonably rough.

There was a man sitting on a wooden chair in the center. His gray robe showed some signs of wear and tear. He looked like a mortal in his sixties, with gray hair on his temples and a "desolate land" on his head.

Upon closer inspection, his eyes were lifeless and extremely dark, as if covered with dust, and he was obviously blind.

"So he's a fortune teller?"

Jiang Mingzhu murmured, turning to look at Pei Xihe, and saw his golden eyes twinkling, staring closely at the blind bald old man.

She suddenly remembered a message she had seen on the Kunlun Sky Mirror a few days ago.

[Eighteen places where the blind half-immortal has been, check them out quickly! If you pass by, don’t miss it! 】

So this blind fortune-telling semi-immortal who has become popular throughout Qiongyu Prefecture these days is the person in front of him?

Qiongyu Prefecture strongly believed in this blind fortune teller. It was said that his whereabouts were unpredictable and he could do divination at will, so they collected the directions where he had traveled, hoping to find some traces of him.

"The half-immortal is very powerful. Let me tell you, he has divined many secret realms. He has always been able to predict fortune and misfortune. He is extremely popular."

"The master is said to be like a god when asking divination. Do you know that Yun Chan is the Immortal? It is the master who figures out the opportunity for his great path!"

"How does the master divine?"

"Ask quickly! Ask quickly!"

There was a lot of noise and chaos, but the residents of the city did not dare to offend this famous diviner easily. After all, practitioners in the world who have mastered fortune-telling can deceive the heavens by tricking their lives, and no one knows what methods they have in their hands.

Pei Xihe looked towards him, and the old man raised his head. He was obviously blind, but he was facing each other.

At the same time, a white sail reappeared on his left side, fluttering in the wind, with the words "Divination, 660,000 Immortal Crystals, one person."

Qiongyu Prefecture is one of the seventy-two prefectures of Daqian. Even though this place is the capital of a prefecture, it is not barren, but the people around it are still shocked by this expensive fairy crystal.

Everyone knows that the conditions for this half-immortal's fortune-telling are uncertain each time. According to rumors, it may be to buy a roast chicken, buy a gourd of wine, or take a rare elixir. There are many changes, but I didn't expect that this time it would be fairy crystal.

Still such an amount.

All the people were talking in low voices, either resentful and cursing because it was so expensive, or lamenting the lack of money in their pockets. Some of the aristocratic families in the city had sent people to report back, eager to obtain the Immortal Crystal.

The female cultivator in golden clothes and the bald old man just looked at each other, then the corners of their lips raised, and they used their thoughts to retrieve the fairy crystal from the underworld palace.

When Jiang Mingzhu saw Pei Xihe trying to take a step, Jiang Mingzhu suddenly understood.

Her face changed from unstable to angry, with her hands on her hips, her eyebrows raised and her eyes glaring, without any trace of her usual calm demeanor, she gritted her teeth and whispered.

"Okay Pei Xihe, I'll put you in my pocket, but you kick me into a ditch!"

"You just spent 660,000 yuan of immortal crystals just for divining. When I invited you to a banquet, you and this vixen put me into bankruptcy. Thank you so much for your wealth and your ability to look up to me." Order three melons and two dates.”

Pei Xihe's eyes averted, she put her fist to her lips, and coughed once or twice. Despite her thick skin, she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

"this is not."

"Why don't you take advantage of me, bastard?"

Seeing the gloomy and pretty face of the female cultivator in green skirt, who was clearly very angry, Pei Xihe hurriedly added: "In the future, when I have the opportunity, I will definitely invite you back."

Anyway, the future is uncertain, and she is indeed not stingy about spending such fairy crystals.

Seeing that Jiang Mingzhu's anger had subsided, Pei Xihe stepped forward and smiled at the blind fortune teller.

"Count it in."

Jiang Mingzhu: I put you in my pocket, but you kicked me into the ditch, it’s like a road!

(PS: There is no deus ex machina. The young man in the Snow Mountain Pavilion and the old fortune teller who have appeared so far all came here for their own reasons. The reason for identity will be discussed later. The 'young man' is actually more obvious, judging from his appearance. Characteristics can be used to infer identity, and careful readers should be able to find that I have written this specifically.)
